A short summary of The Walking Stones

The book "The Walking Stones" is about a boy named Donald Campbell who is excited about a Hydroelectric company's plan to build a dam near the glen*he lives in. But his friend the bodach** does not like the plan to build a dam as he is the gifted one of the second sight who knows of the legendary tale of the walking stones. this is a very exciting story as Donald ventures further to find the mystery of the walking stones and why his friend the bodach** does not like the plan of building a dam. I strongly reccommend this book for advanced readers.


* Village in Scottish

** Another word for old man in Gaelic,their ancient language

What I liked and disliked about our trip to Fort Canning Park

The trip in total was really fun. First of all I liked our tour guide, Miss Nurul . Second of all I liked the part when we learned all about spices in the spice garden some of the spices were used in the making of food like laksa for example. Some of the spices family names were pretty confusing like Zingiberaceae and also all of the plant's family names ended with AE. So pretty much I liked most of the trip!!
